Question What for supper at your house tonight?

Let's share our supper ideas...
Here's what cooking here, it's Friday so I am making baked cod (yes with butter) and a big salad! About 7 points! And if I have any points left, I'll have a lite beer for 2 points!

I'm planning on having a Smart Ones Rice and Beans, and a salad. However, I think my mom wants me to go out to eat with the family tonight, so I don't know what to do. ( I only have 7 pts to use for dinner).

Sammykins...did you stay within your points? It's hard to go out to eat with limited points-that what the flex ones are for though. I knew I was having filet minon last night and was soo looking forward to a great steak...so I made the cabbage soup for lunch and nibbled on that all during the day and really enjoyed the steak and salad bar for supper. Tonight is weigh in and I will be eating the left over soup for lunch, too. I need to lose only .4 to make LIFETIME. But after weighing in tonight I am going home to pocupine meatballs!

I had white chili (2 points per filling cup), yogurt biscuits(1pt each- I had 3) and baked onion rings (1 pt per serving and the serving is nicely sized). All three recipes are from WW. I also had cucumber slices and baby carrots. I also had a table spoon of Brummel and Brown spread (it is a margarine like product and = 1pt/tbl).

White chili:
3 can Rotel Tomatoes
1 lb chix breast (cooked and chopped up)
3 cans of any white beans.

1 cup = 2pts.

Tonight I am making Chicken Quesidillas, corn tortillas, low fat cheese, low fat cream of chicken soup, chicken breasts, chili powder, and green chilis. I cook them on the George Foreman grill. I will serve them with FF refried beans, salsa and LF sour cream! YUM!

I didn't make LIFETIME last night...I actually gained a pound. I was OP all week, but I think it was the cup of chili I had 2 hours before weigh in- it was very salty! Oh well, there's always next week, only now I need to lose 1.4#!

Hang in there Ideal, you will make it soon. This may be a silly question, but is Rotel the brand name of the tomatoes? If so, would stewed tomatoes substitute in these recipes?

Bye for now.

Rotel is a brand of stewed tomatoes with green chilis in with them.

lala-what is mahi mahi-fish? I live in Wisconsin-we are limited in our seafood selections.

Thanks for clearing up the tomatoe thing, Ideal. I've had mahi-mahi before & really enjoyed it. Last night I had some sloppy-joe mixture on ww toast and a small piece of veal. Don't know about tonight yet - bf is cooking supper tonight.

Have a great day.

Tonight I have a pork tenderloin in the crockpot with 98% FF cream of mushroom soup over it-not sure of the points, but it is very lean. I will probably have it with brown rice and carrots. It is very cold here (-40 degrees) so having supper ready when I get home will be a great treat!
